vac attachments?

[kylawngirl]

hey everyone!

i am in the market for a vacuum attachment hose for a lawn vac.. anybody have any suggestions/horror stories???

i have looked at agri-fab, dr, trac-vac.. but they all seem similar.

i have never used one, so would appreciate any info you can give!

THANKS!

I have heard mixed reports on powered baggers. The most common complain is plugging of the hose to the cart etc. Gets to be a pain after awhile.
I guess the lawn condition and the cut height has alot to do with the plugging problem. Wet heavy grass will plug any power device.

For Fall leafs it is great!

I settled on a pull behind sweeper and mow in a way that discharges the grass towards the center. Cuts down on the number of passes to collect the cut grass.

I use the Deere system, with a blower on the deck and a collection cart that dumps on behind. Have no problems with plugging, unless I get a stick in crosswise.
